A Quick Look at the BlackBerry Q5



The BlackBerry Q5 has some big shoes to fill in my opinion. Considered to be the successor of the Curve series, the BlackBerry Q5 is the entry level BlackBerry 10 device that was recently released in Sinapore. Being a huge fan of the Curve 9360 myself, I had high hopes for it. I recently got my hands on one, and thought I will share my thoughts about the device.

BB10 Brainstorming: Fingerprints



I’ll go right out and say it, I think Apple’s Touch ID is a great idea if it works the same as in the demos. I am in that group where I never have password lock on my device. Not even pattern lock. It might be something that takes perhaps seconds to input, but it adds up.

In-Depth Look at Why I love BlackBerry 10 and the Q10



Those who know me would know that I use phones from all 4 major platforms (iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry) regularly. One question that I get asked occasionally is that “Why are you still using a BlackBerry?” My answer is pretty simple. “It works better for my set of needs.”

BlackBerry: Wind of Change



It is not easy being a fan of BlackBerry these days. In fact it hasn’t been easy for years. Especially with the recent onslaught of negative press, not just from the media, but from BlackBerry themselves too.

What if Wayne Enterprises bought BlackBerry?



Inspired by CrackBerry’s “What ifs” series of posts, which explores the possibility that the “strategic alternatives” that BlackBerry talked about, might mean the sale of the company or partnership. I am sure most BlackBerry fans would hate to see that happening if it meant that BlackBerry as we know it now might cease to exist.
